Anime/Manga Need Drama/Sad/Romance Anime Suggestions

[pastelspectre]

Hello! I am trying to get back into anime, and I was wondering if you all had good anime suggestions, specifically drama/sad anime, or romance anime. I've already seen Clannad/Clannad Afterstory (it's my favorite anime of all time), Angel Beats, Elfen Lied, Kotoura-san, one week friends, and a few others I can't think of right now. Oh, I've also seen your lie in april.

I really like cheesy romance anime with a sprinkle of drama in it, as well as dramatic or overly sad anime, so if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thank you!

Perhaps not as cheesy as the stuff you've mentioned but Nodame Cantabile, Spice and Wolf and Ore Monogatari are solid series.

Arakawa Under the Bridge and Working are more comedy than romance but you'd probably enjoy.

Lovely Complex
Toradora
Oreimo (Stop before the end of the second season to enjoy a better story lmao)

Hachimitsu to Clover (Although it could also go on the other list)
Sasameki Koto (as above)
Acchi Kocchi

Thank you! I hope I can find those on hulu or netflix :c those are the only places i can really watch anime because i can't stand constant ads on crunchyroll or other websites/apps

Crunchyroll ads disappear with paid membership and there are several streaming sites who will not display ads whilst the show is actually running. Between all the different services available, you should easily be able to find all of those.

how much is paid membership? i think it's like 9 dollars or something right? (from what i remember from the game grumps crunchyroll commercials)

 

[Lipstick Vogue]

7 of your American Dollars p/m.
